More on Stone Brewing's barrel-aged series

ESCONDIDO, CA ... The 2017 year of beer culminates this December when Stone Brewing releases a bounty of barrel-aged beers. Long-time fan favorites, including Stone Imperial Russian Stout and Stone Sublimely Self Righteous Black IPA, return with new depth, character and complexity, thanks to the attention of Stone’s talented small batch brewers – the wild and crazy denizens of the Stone Mission Warehouse.

“I love experiencing how our brewers can transform a beer that I know so well into something completely new,” said Greg Koch, Stone Brewing executive chairman & co-founder. “They’ve taken painstaking efforts to procure the best barrels and have taken immaculate care of these rarities, some aging for almost a full year. The outcome will, no doubt, amaze whether you choose to drink them now or cellar them.”

....

There’s a short window of time to acquire these master works. Luckily, it’s a window of time with plenty of excuses to share great beer among family and friends. The 2017 Small Batch Releases will be in stores throughout the month of December and into the New Year, available nearly nationwide. Filter by “Stone Small Batch Releases” on the Stone Brewing Beer Finder. All beers, packaged in 500ml bottles, can be enjoyed fresh or cellared for future occasions.
